Introduction: This study aimed to investigate effectiveness acceptance and commitment therapy on irrational beliefs and bias toward incentives with negative emotions in adolescent girls. Methods: This study used a Semi-experimental design with pretest - posttest with the control group. The study population included all high school grade female students studying in Qom that had been formed in the school year 95-94. The final sample size of 40 girls with irrational beliefs were high that the sampling method chosen and randomly divided, were counted into two groups (n = 20) and control (n = 20). Instruments included Jones Irrational Beliefs Scale and the dot-probe test. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy by Hayes, Astrvsal and Wilson (1999) built-in 6 sessions on experimental group was 90 minutes. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Results: Research results show that Acceptance and commitment therapy is not effective on irrational beliefs teen girls (p > 0/05), but were significant effects on bias toward incentives with negative emotions (p ≤ 0/01). Conclusion: Generally Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) because of increasing psychological flexibility and client relationship is established with time makes also lead to action by changing the values of individual references to cross be, can be treated as a psychological-of the right to reduce attentional bias to negative emotional triggers respectively.

Introduction: This research focused on effects of training social skills using Bendura’s observational learning model on improving theory of mind of preschool children in Urmia. Method: Current research which is semi-experimental, was conducted in a pretest-aftertest kind of studies with a control group.40 children were chosen considering availability and randomly seperated into test and control groups. To evaluate variables in this research, Elliott and Grsham’s social skills calibration gauge for preschool children (ssrs) and Stimman and Morris' 38-item questionnaire about theory of mind were used as tools to get information about pretest and aftertest.Children in test group were trained social skills during 15 sessions using Bendura’s observational learning model.We examined the data produced by tests using covariance analysis and independent T experiment. Conclusion: Findings suggest that training social skills using Bendura’s observational learning model significantly improves these skills andtheory of mind ability in children. Results: Therefore, results of current research imply that through theory of mind development, training involvements can prevent from children’s several cognitive and behavioral abnormalities; so it’s suggested that training social skills will be included in policies of Education Organization and clinical centers.

Introduction: The purpose of this research was to examine the effectiveness of time Prespective therapy on motivational strategies and cognitive in procrastinition students. Method: Design of this experimental research was pretest-posttest associated with control group. Instruments of the present study includes the Zimbardo Time Perspective Questionnaire, Zusho and Barnett procrastination Motivational-cognitive Questionnaire (2011) and Tuckman and Brousse Questionnaire (1991). Statistical population consists of all the students studying at Gulf University in the academic year 2015-2016; and 300 of them were selected by multistage cluster sampling and responded to the academic procrastination scale (TPS). Then by using cutting point, 36 Procrastinition girl Students were randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. Time perspective therapy (six sessions) was considered as an independent variable based on the Zimbardo protocol (2012). To analyze the data, Multivariate Covariance Analysis was performed using SPSS software. Findings: The results of the research showed that Time Prespective Therapy improvement of motivational and Cognitive strategies and procrastination in the experimental group compared with the control group. The results of ANCOVA analysis showed that, through controlling pretests, there is a meaningful difference between posttests of mastery goals, performance- approach goals, need for cognition, procrastination, expectation for success, task value, rehearsal, organization and metacognitive self-regulation in experimental and control groups. But, there was no significant change in the avoidance goal variable (p = 0. 19).

Aim: Decision making is one of the most important aspects of our individual and social lives. In spite of various models and frameworks of decision making, no comprehensive model has been proposed so far to integrate cognitive dimensions in decision making models. In the current era, with the development and advancement of cognitive sciences, it’s necessary to deepen our studies in this field. Thus, our aim was to identify the current status of the studies conducted about components of decision making. Method: All themes of decision making were identified through systematic review literature using meta analysis. The data coding was done with Nvivo-11. Finally, 80 codes of decision making were categorized in 26 categories and 5 themes (contextual factors, individual factors, cognitive readiness and cognitive distortions). Then the importance and priority of each proposed dimension was determined using Shannon quantitative method based on content analysis. Results & Conclusion: Thus, this study is innovative in terms of both results and methodology. The other innovation of this study is the comprehensive integration of cognitive components into decision making models.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to introduce and Calculate primary reliability and validity social trap scale. Method: the society of research consisted of all undergraduate students in Kurdistan universities that were 40000 students. The sampling method was randomly multistage cluster sampling. From among 400 students participated in research project, 320 students filled Researcher made scale of social trap for normalizing, and social perspective taking scale and Social procrastination for assessing convergent and divergent validity filled by sample research. Data analyzed by cronbach alpha, Pearson correlation coefficient and factor analysis. Results: analyzed data showed positive correlation between social trap and Social procrastination (pConclusion: Preliminary estimates showed that the Social trap Scale is a reliable and valid tool in order to evaluate social traps.
